The Stock Market was one of the few things the Biden Admin could point to as relatively positive.

That bubble seems to be bursting.

The clowns can only juggle so much for so long. This circus could be in deep elephant s*it in November.

The article handled the metrics correctly.

In an inflationary period it is critical to de-inflate all numbers for apples to apples comparison.

Otherwise you can scammed by “profit went up” or “wages went up” or “profits went up” when in fact they may have gone down when adjusted for inflation.

My prediction: Depression with a drop of 33 percent in gdp, inflation rates in the short to intermediate range of 33 per cent, 33 percent unemployment...wide spread scarcities...
perhaps a break up of the US as various sections decide to try and reconstitute themselves as new nation states expecting no fixes from D.C. Wide spread chaos and violence.

That’s what history and the numbers show. The Dems and their deep state Prog masters are statist but they cannot keep the nation together and while they are big on talk, they have no firm grip on our total enforcement mechanisms to push their tyrannies that they are emposing through the bureaucracy.(even military control is shaky...too many “non-shooters” as compared to combat persons and they have no confidence that state national guardsmen and women will allow themselves to be pressed into service against their own fellow citizens) Too many guns in the hands of patriots and too many areas in the USA that can be managed well apart from the central government as many areas still have basicaaly good law abiding people through which locally stabilized regions can maintain themselves...albeit at a more lower economic level.

The issue becomes for such “autonomous regions”, that desperate Democrat despots, trying to maintain control, might resort to nuclear tactical missile blackmail especially if a few willing generals and admirals are in agreement. Congressman Swalwell is in on record as threatening such.

Sorry for the gloom and doom but our generation just can’t fathom having to resort to revolution to throw the bastards out and many in our nation have no inner spiritual moral restraints to be good lawfully abiding citizens of a republic; which can only work if the vast majority of citizens are in moral agreement with one another. Many “good” people are in denial and they just can’t imagine just how evil many at the top are. Or they sense it but can’t imagine having to stir up their inner fire to rid themselves of such evil people because that might mean violence and death. Many of those would rather die and many of those “good people” will simply conform to what is evil just to maintain some sort of hope that it will all magically get “all better”. Many have kids and jobs and mortgages and things are “stable”...perhaps they feel they will escape the pain and loss.

Sometimes it’s our turn to embrace the “suck” of history!
